I ordered one from amazon made by amazon and it charged for like two seconds and never worked again but it works with all my other electronics. I need an extended charger the for the stock one is too short.

If you just want a 6 foot extension , then you can use this USB 3.0 cable between the PS and the smaller transformer cable:

is that one confirmed to ne working because like i said i bought the amazon branded one and its a no go

Think it has to be 3.0 cable for it to work as it requires more connections
return and get a 3.0 cable to see if it works for you. the only reason i could say that it charged is because it could be asleep meaning it charging from pc.

HI guys im wondering where can i find the best hdmi cords for my G2X phonw. I recently ordered one in amazon and arrived today but wasnt the same connection to my phone :/. Im pretty pissed off since was up for it, so now im posting this thread to see if any one can direct me to some good hmdi cords of the G2X? thank u for ure help.
i orderd an iogear cable from newegg it was like 12 buck free shipping. Works perfect. sorry cant post links yet
I got a 6' cable for $3 after shipping from Amazon. I should get mine in a couple days. It said it was for G2x; I hope it fits my phone!
whatever you do, stay away from the monoprice cables.. There are multiple posts about their cables frying the phone.
To input my two cents, don't buy a cable that reads gold plated or anything of the like. Off the top of my head I can think of Monster Cables. I don't know about MicroHDMI and Monster Cables.
Why? Well, digital cables only need to pass 1s and 0s (i.e. binary). Back in the day with analog cables, the wires used in cables really were effective. Nowadays, simple silver will get the job done the same as gold-plated / gold-tipped / dipped-in-gold cables.
I have a 3 part response to the post above.
1. Used to work at Circuit City, and we were, pretty much told to push cables, and that type of accessory. Why? Because the cost on say a 4" RCA Video cable was $7 when they would sell them to customers for $70. Yup. I purchase a $70 dollar Top of the Line Monster Cable Video only RCA cable back in the day for $7 bones. Cables are a big business.
2.Plenty of people, I know that work at electronic stores, say that when purchasing a HDMI cable, you don't need to spend anything more than $20 bux.
As long as its under 14'.
3.Silver is actually a better conductor of electricity than gold. I don't know how much better, it actually is. The reason they don't use Silver for plating cables and such, is becuase it oxidizes. Gold doesn't.
I order all my cables from monoprice.com

In what way did it not fit? Micro HDMI is Micro HDMI there is not varying versions its all the same size. Now if you are saying the surrounding rubber wouldn't allow you to plug it into the socket I can understand but the actual socket is all the same.
Has anyone Odined back to stock using a Usb cable that wasn't the one that came with the phone? I left mine @ work and was going to use a Kindle Usb... Or should I buy a new oem one from Verizon tomorrow? Thanks guys!

As far as i know, all USB cables are the exact same...
There is definitely a difference in quality, but I haven't had any problems sticking with any supplied cable. I did have some issues with my 3 for a dollar eBay crap, and my walmart brand cable though.
Edit, by supplied cable i mean any cable from a known manufacturer. Amazon brand cables seem to work fine for me, usually i use that or my old motorola cable.
I use my old Motorola cable because I got my GS3 as an exchange from Verizon. I have also used my kindle fire cable and noticed no difference. As said above a crap 3 dollar cable may not but the other should.

Just wanted to make a quick review since i didn't find one in the whole forum and on google, about the official samsung dock, paired with our beloved Nexus 4, in the past few days i took the time to inspect the Nexus 4 size VS the official dock size and came to the conclusion that it would fit, so i bought it, a few days later BOOM new dock and when i tried my theory... well it worked like a charm =) it fits perfectly and look great Just take a look it fits perfectly, charging is as fast as directly connected, i will keep updating this thread with more details, right not i don't have a 3.5 mm AUX cable to test it, but it's a complete "GO" to the people thinking of getting one, thanks for reading folks.
What Samsung model is that dock made for?
Looks like the universal Samsung dock.

You must of died.
But anyways. I own this dock as my girlfriend uses it with her S2.
-Aux port does not do anything with the Nexus 4.
-Daydreams do not turn on either (unless set to activate while charging as well)
This dock is just a fancy wall charger for the N4.

I have forgotten my charger at home and won't be back for a few days but I need my tablet for class. So I ask do I have any options? Or do any local stores carry the cable?
Sent from my One S using xda app-developers app
I would try the local Best Buy store.
I'm not 100% sure, but maybe nexus7 cable can work. And if that can be confirmed, you're more likely to find that at staples, best buy, etc.

Note that you still need the TF charger - with standard 5 volt USB, it may take more than 24 hours for a full charge.

I don't know for sure, but I don't think the N7 has the same charger, since I believe that uses a regular micro USB.
Why wouldn't you check caseen. They seem to have TF chargers in stock on their website.

Ahh, thanks for confirming.
I wasn't entirely sure and was basing it on the fact that n7 also built by Asus and that my zagg power supply will only charge my phone and not tablet.
Only after buying zagg power and trying to use it unsuccessfully for tablet, I saw it said online that it won't work with n7, but they didn't mention our tablets, so I thought same cables etc. Oh well, good to know. Now I've just realized I've never seen (irl) or played with a n7 yet, wow.
Good luck op!

I haven't found any local stores that carry any accessories when my cat chewed up mine. Amazon has a few different brands. There is one that houses the wires in rubber instead of the normal plastic that I liked. Its also 6' long which is nice.

Its not the wrong connection, the female micro USB part is where your charger plugs into to give power
And the big female USB is where you plug in flash drives etc...

Haha no worries
I really wish the N4 does supports an actual port for flash drives or any other kind of USB
It really defeats the purpose of having OTG
Good thing I got a portable solar powered external battery to plug into

Believe it only affects the pinout for MHL though, so OTG should work fine. Not 100% sure though since a friend with an S3 ran into issues with an OTG cable I gave him.
